The kiss was magical. I wanted it to never end. Despite the fact that he was undead he was so warm. When our lips separated I opened my eyes. We both smiled. I laid my hand onto his chest, dug my fingers into the fabric of his shirt and pulled him closer again for another kiss. This kiss was even more powerful. It felt so good. We separated again.

Raphael: "Freja Eliasson, what are you doing with me?"

Freja: "What do you mean?" I became insecure.

Another kiss took the insecurity away again. While we kissed clouds came up. They were dark and full of rain so we decided to go inside again. As soon as we entered the stairway, it started to pour. We went downstairs. It wasn't time to go to bed yet. We sat down on the sofa. I looked into his eyes again.

Raphael: "You have amazing eyes. So bright blue. They look like the sky when the sun is shining."

Freja: "Do you miss the sun?"

Raphael: "Every day. But at some point you get used to the darkness. I don't have a choice."

We stayed on the sofa and talked about the plans of the next days. I would spend a lot of time with Magnus. He was supposed to teach me some magic. Alec was still angry at me because I decided to leave the institute back then.

At 2 am we decided to go to bed because I needed to get up early to get to Magnus place. Raphael did not want me to go alone because of the faeries.

He sat down on the rim of the bed. I stood some inches away from him. He grabbed onto my waist and pulled me closer. I hugged him, dug my fingers into his hair. So soft.

He let himself fall back and pulled me with him. I was now on top of him and decided to give him another kiss. After some time I rolled next to him and smiled.

I stood up once again to get into my sweat pants. I took them from Raphael so they were way too big but cozy. When I came back Raphael was already in his pjs and waited for me.

I noticed that he didn't lay on the right side of the bed, he laid in the middle. So did I. Still some space between us tho. I was not sure if he wanted to cuddle or not. But I couldn't think about it for any longer. He grinned and came closer, closing the space between us. Then he turned me around and spooned me, putting a blanket over us. He pushed his arm below my head, hugging me tight. His other hand was placed on my head. He slowly began to stroke the side of my hair and gave me another kiss on the neck. When my heartbeat became faster he giggled. I fell asleep.

Before sunrise we got up, got ready and headed off to Magnus apartment. When Raphael made sure I was save he left me alone with Magnus. He would pick me up again when the sun went down.

Magnus: "So where do you want to start?"

Freja: "Portals."

Magnus: "Honey, that's not a good thing to start with. How about inflaming a candle with your thoughts?"

Freja: "Yeeeey." I was already frustrated.

Magnus: "I'll ignore that irony." He placed a candle in front of me. "Inflame it."

Freja: "And how am I supposed to do that?"

Magnus: "Think about heat, about fire, a small flame and focus on the candle."

I tried. I put all my effort in and after some tries I made a small fire, not long enough to inflame the candle tho. But I had success some attempts later.

Magnus: "You are good! It didn't even take you half an hour. You have a strong will. Listen, I need to ask you that. Do you have any idea what happened? Why you have so much downworlder blood inside you?"

Freja: "No, I don't. I thought about it but I have no clue."

Magnus: "Well, it doesn't matter. It's like that now and we should be happy you are part of us now. When do you plan to go to Luke or back into the institute?"

Freja: "Never."

Magnus: "Excuse me? What do you mean?"

Freja: "I belong to Raphael and his clan. His followers accept me and see me as one of them. I like you and I know that Raphael trusts you. You seem to know each other pretty good. Also I don't see perks in being a werewolf or a shadowhunter. I'll concentrate on being a warlock-vampire-hybrid if you don't mind."

Magnus: "I practically raised Raphael. He's the son I never had. Alec and Jace will be sad about your decision tho."

Freja: "Your boyfriend already is mad at me and so is Jace probably."

Magnus: "They are worried, like all of us."

Freja: "Can we just continue please?"

Magnus: "Of course, little pyromaniac." He laughed.

Next I learned to control the water, making waves in the bathtub. Then I let a plant grow faster, that was more something fearie-like tho. Even the wind listened to my thoughts. Magnus was impressed. At 1 pm Magnus wanted to get us lunch but I was not hungry. The last days I had been living on blood. I didn't need normal food anymore just noticed that now.

We practiced the whole afternoon until the sun went down and Raphael stood in front of the door. I thanked Magnus and we wanted to go.

Magnus: "Sweetheart, tomorrow I'll teach you to magically mix cocktails."

We laughed. It was a good day. I had a lot of good days recently and they became even better when I spend time with Raphael.

When we got home I showered and wanted to go to bed. I realized, that I probably needed to sleep alone since Raphael was usually awake at night. But when I stepped outside the bathroom he was waiting in the bed.

Freja: "It's night. Don't you want to stay up?"

Raphael: "The night is not worth staying up, if you aren't with me."

I smiled and joined him in bed. He did not have a shirt on. His body was amazing. I laid my head on his chest. It was so warm. While he stroked my hair I fell asleep.
